Climate service concepts from research to piloting and proof-of-concept with global scope - 7 November 2016, Brussels, Belgium

[Source: Research & Innovation] Climate services have the potential to become the intelligence behind the transition to a climate-resilient and low-carbon society. The added value of climate services relies on matching the demand for services and the competences in the field. A European research and innovation roadmap for climate service offers a framework for discussion to the relevant actors and stakeholders. Roadmap paves the way to shared solutions and facilitates the development of a market for climate services that provides benefits to society. The event will present the policy view on the subject as well as stakeholders´ views, including the discussion of the challenge for Latin America and Caribe. The other speakers include representatives of RTD institutions based in France, Germany, UK and the Czech Republic.
